Detailed Description
According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, by means of a separation structure in the chamber of the acoustic device, e.g. an earpiece, to define two sub-chambers within the chamber, the low frequency resonance may be improved without increasing the volume of the acoustic device. In some embodiments, acoustic distortion may be reduced or prevented by perforations on the separation structure and on the ends of the chamber.
Fig. 1 illustrates a cross-sectional view of an acoustic device 1a according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.
The acoustic device 1a comprises the chambers 12, 14, the vibrating structure 13, the separating structure 125, the liner 15 and the audio line 16. The acoustic device 1a may be a headset, such as an inner outer ear headphone or an earbud headset.
The chamber 12 and the chamber 14 form or define the housing 10. The housing 10 may be sized, shaped, and/or configured to rest within the concha of a user's ear. The cushion 15 is combined with the housing 10 and faces the ear. In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the cushion 15 at least partially covers a portion of the chamber 14.
The vibrating structure 13 is disposed between the chamber 12 and the chamber 14. The vibrating structure 13 is configured to convert an electrical audio signal received through the audio line 16 into sound or sound waves. The vibrating structure 13 may emit sound waves in two directions. For example, the vibrating structure 13 may emit sound waves away from the chamber 12 and toward the pad 15, or away from the pad 15 and toward the chamber 12. The vibrating structure 13 may be an acoustic driver driven by an audio line 16. In some embodiments, the vibrating structure 13 may be driven via a wireless connection with an external device. In some embodiments, the vibrating structure 13 may be or may include a diaphragm. The vibrating structure 13 may comprise an elastic material.
The chamber 12 comprises an end 121 remote from the vibrating structure 13 and an end 122 opposite the end 121. The end 122 of the chamber 12 is adjacent to the chamber 14. The vibrating structure 13 is disposed at the end 122 of the chamber 12. As shown in fig. 1, a perforation (or vent hole, aperture) O1 is defined or positioned at a surface of the end 121 of the chamber 12. The perforations O1 penetrate the wall or shell of the chamber 12. In some embodiments, the diameter of the perforations O1 may be in a range between 0.6mm and 0.9 mm. In some embodiments, the diameter of the perforations O1 may be in a range between 0.7mm and 0.8 mm.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, central axis X1 of perforation O1 is different from or spaced apart from central axis X2 of perforation O2. That is, the protrusion of perforation O1 on separation structure 125 does not overlap perforation O2. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, central axis X1 of perforation O1 is the same as central axis X2 of perforation O2. That is, the protrusion of perforation O1 on separation structure 125 may overlap perforation O2. In some embodiments, the volume defined by perforation O1 or within perforation O1 is greater than the volume defined by perforation O2 or within perforation O2. For example, the ratio of the volume defined by perforation O1 to the volume defined by perforation O2 is greater than 1 and equal to or less than 1.2. In some embodiments, the ratio may be greater than 1.2. The configuration of perforations O1 and O2 may facilitate pressure equalization within chamber 12 (or between subchambers 124 and 126) during vibration of vibrating structure 13. The configuration of perforations O1 and O2 may also increase the path of sound waves emitted within chamber 12 in order to increase the acoustic performance (particularly for low frequency resonances) of acoustic device 1 a. In some embodiments, the separation structure 125 may define more than one perforation.
The separating structure 125 further defines an aperture O3 for the audio line 16 to pass through the vibrating structure 13 and couple to the vibrating structure 13. The audio line 16 may be used to emit an electrical signal to drive the vibrating structure 13 to generate sound or sound waves. In some embodiments, an adhesive material (not shown) may be used to secure audio line 16 in aperture O3. The tacky material may seal the space between the audio line 16 and the hole O3. The tacky material may fill the space in the hole O3 between the audio line 16 and the separating structure 125. Thus, the audio line 16 is tightly fixed and more stable or resistant to pull strength.
Fig. 2A, 2B, 2C and 2D are cross-sectional views of the acoustic device 1a in fig. 1 at various stages of operation. Fig. 2A generally illustrates that when driven by an electrical signal, the vibrating structure 13 vibrates and generates sound waves toward the pad 15. The acoustic wave may be composed of various components, including low frequency waves, intermediate frequency waves, and high frequency waves. Low frequency waves typically sound "lower" to the human ear and may be in the range between 10Hz and 200Hz or lower. The mid-frequency wave may be in a range between 200Hz and 2000 Hz. The high frequency wave may be higher than 2000 Hz.
Referring to fig. 2A, when vibrating structure 13 (or a portion of vibrating structure 13) vibrates or bends toward pad 15, an airflow is generated from subchamber 124 to subchamber 126, with external air entering subchamber 124 through perforations O1 and air in subchamber 124 entering subchamber 126 through perforations O2. Because the volume of sub-chamber 124 is greater than or equal to the volume of sub-chamber 126, the force (or density) F1 of the gas flow will increase as the gas flow enters sub-chamber 126. Thus, a sufficient amplitude of the vibration of the vibrating structure 13 or a sufficient displacement of the vibrating structure 13 may be achieved with a moderate air flow and the momentum of the low frequency part of the sound wave may be enhanced.
Referring to fig. 2C, vibrating structure 13 vibrates or rebounds back toward chamber 12, creating air pressure and a flow of air from subchamber 126 to subchamber 124, wherein air in subchamber 126 enters subchamber 124 through perforations O2 and air in subchamber 124 flows through perforations O1. Because the volume of sub-chamber 126 is less than the volume of sub-chamber 124, the air flow from sub-chamber 126 to sub-chamber 124 is restricted and the velocity of the air flow is impeded. Therefore, the vibration amplitude of the vibrating structure 13 or the displacement of the vibrating structure 13 is suppressed, which reduces the period of time during which the vibrating structure 13 needs to be restored to its original position. That is, the slower airflow may prevent or reduce delays during recovery of the vibrating structure 13 that may otherwise occur due to movement of large amounts of air and may result in sound distortion. In addition, due to the design of perforations O1 on chamber 12, the space within subchamber 124 and the space within subchamber 126 are connected to the outside atmosphere, which may improve pressure equalization performance and reduce sound distortion. Accordingly, the present disclosure may reduce or prevent sound distortion.
Fig. 2D illustrates the vibrating structure 13 returning to its initial position and ready for a subsequent vibration.
Fig. 3 illustrates a perspective view of an acoustic device 3a according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The acoustic device 3a may be the same as or similar to the acoustic device 1a in fig. 1. Some components are omitted. For example, the pad 15 and the audio line 16 are omitted.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the central axis X1 of the perforations O1 on the chamber 12 is different from the central axis X2 of the perforations O2 on the separation structure 125 or spaced apart from the central axis X2. Distance D1 is defined between central axis X1 of perforation O1 and central axis X2 of perforation O2. The separation structure 125 defines a length L1. Generally, increasing distance D1 increases the length of the gas flow between sub-chambers 124 and 126 caused during vibration of vibrating structure 13 and may increase the low frequency resonance of the generated sound waves. In some embodiments, the ratio of distance D1 to length L1 may be designed to be close to 1; for example, the ratio may be in a range between 0.5 and 0.9. In some embodiments, the ratio may be in a range between 0.1 and 0.9. According to the present disclosure, the adBSPL of the target resonant frequency point may be enhanced by 3 dB. In other embodiments, the central axis X1 of the perforation O1 may be the same as the central axis X2 of the perforation O2, which also has better low frequency resonance than if no separate structure were disposed in the chamber 12.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the perforation O1 has a circular shape with a radius R1 and a depth T1 (which may also be the thickness of the shell of the chamber 12). Perforations O2 have a circular shape with a radius R2 and a depth T2 (which may also be the thickness of separation structure 125). Thus, volume V1 of perforation O1 is pi R12T 1, and volume V2 of perforation O2 is pi R22T 2. Volume V1 is greater than volume V2. For example, the ratio of volume V1 to volume V2 may be greater than 1 and equal to or less than 1.2. In some embodiments, the ratio of volume V1 to volume V2 may be greater than 1.2. The configuration of the volumes of perforations O1 and O2 may facilitate pressure equalization within chamber 12 (or between subchambers 124 and 126) during vibration of vibrating structure 13.
In some embodiments, the separation structure 125 defines more than one perforation. When separation structure 125 defines only one perforation O2, the relationship or design rule between the total volume of all perforations V3 and the volume of perforations O1V 1 may be the same as or similar to the relationship or design rule between volume of perforations O2V 2 and the volume of perforations O1V 1. That is, the ratio of the volume V1 to the volume V3 may be greater than 1 and equal to or less than 1.2. In some embodiments, the ratio of volume V1 to volume V3 may be greater than 1.2.
Fig. 4 illustrates a cross-sectional view of an acoustic device 4a according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The acoustic device 4a may be a headphone, such as an earmuff type headphone.
The acoustic device 4a comprises a pad 15, a chamber 12, a vibrating structure 13 and a separating structure 125. Chamber 12 defines a perforation O1 and separation structure 125 defines a perforation O2. Separation structure 125 defines sub-chamber 124 and sub-chamber 126 within chamber 12. In some embodiments, the cushion 15, chamber 12, vibrating structure 13, separating structure 125, and perforations O1 and O2 of acoustic device 4a may be the same as or similar to cushion 15, chamber 12, vibrating structure 13, separating structure 125, and perforations O1 and O2 of acoustic device 1a in fig. 1.
During application, two acoustic devices 4a may be used, corresponding to the right and left ears of the user. Due to the arrangement of the separation structure 125, components such as batteries or circuit boards may be arranged within the sub-chamber 124 of one of the two acoustic devices 4 a. Thus, the configuration, arrangement or volume of the sub-chambers 126 of the two acoustic devices 4a may be substantially the same, which may improve the uniformity of the frequency response received by the left and right ears of the user.
Fig. 5 illustrates an exploded view of an acoustic device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The acoustic device may be similar to the acoustic device 4a in fig. 4. As shown in fig. 5, a baffle 17 may be disposed between the vibrating structure 13 and the pad 15 (the baffle 17 may comprise or be an ear pad). In some embodiments, the diameter of the perforations O1 defined on the chamber 12 may be between 4mm and 6mm, for example, about 5mm, and the diameter of the perforations O2 defined on the separation structure 125 may be between 2mm and 3 mm. The chamber 12 and/or the separation structure 125 may have a cap shape. The chamber 12 covers the baffle 17, the vibrating structure 13 and the separating structure 125 on the pad 15. The separation structure 125 covers the vibrating structure 13 on the baffle 17.
